In Summary: A personal policy or credit card coverage may not be enough to protect you in case of a mishap during your car rental — you could still be responsible for damage. Ask your insurer if you'll have adequate coverage, then consider purchasing these peace-of-mind protections. Don't risk a personal policy premium increase.

Loss Damage Waiver (LDW) as low as $9/dayLDW isn’t insurance – it's an option that relieves you of financial responsibility if the rental car is damaged or stolen.

Supplemental Liability Insurance (SLI) no more than $15/daySLI is excess automobile liability insurance that protects you against third-party bodily injury and property-damage claims for which you’re legally liable.

Emergency Sickness Plan (ESP) as low as $5/dayESP provides international renters visiting the U.S. with coverage for medical expenses resulting from sickness.

Collision Damage Waiver (CDW) as low as $10/dayAn international version of the U.S. Loss Damage Waiver (LDW), helps protect drivers from repair costs from accidental damage to the vehicle.
